!IT stocks lead strong market rally

Indian equity markets ended last week on a strong note, with the Sensex gaining around 965 points and the Nifty closing above 24,300. The rally was driven by robust Q1 earnings from major IT companies, including Tech Mahindra and Jio Financial, along with buying in banking stocks. Investors will now focus on more Q1 earnings and global market cues to see if the momentum continues this week.
